#UnderstandingPsychosis?

[Cheshire]

Article critic of a BPS (British Psychology Society) controversial report on psychosis.

There are familiar flaws: incomplete definition, wilful ignorance of biological causes, bad questionnaires, "inadequate provision of psychological therapies"...

Edit: why is the Mental Elf unable to do the same for ME?

Because they have a very large and nasty bias which results in unconditional support for anything involving Simon Wessely.

Coyne article on the same topic:

At least 3 reasons you don’t have to read Understanding Psychosis and Schizophrenia 2

The excellent post by Sameer Jauhar and Paul Morrison about the second edition of Understanding Psychosis and Schizophrenia is getting few comments. Perhaps this is because much of the second edition repeats the heavily criticized first edition, while further eliminating citation of research that would prove embarrassing to what is said.

I see at the end of that article that Coyne has a book to sell. I wonder if it's written in his own inimitable style? Perhaps a subject for a seperate thread.
